I am a work from home Mom in my 30's. I recently discovered the tutorial blogging world and have enjoyed making cool things! I decided to start doing parties for those mom's that want to make things, but just don't have the time, ideas, or place to do it. Join me, lets have some fun and make super cute things!

Fabric covered mouse pad

I also work from home part time. I use a black table for my desk and it has absolutely no grain for my mouse to pick up. So, I had to figure out a way to make a cute mouse pad, because the one we have is UGLY...

So I searched a few tutorials and they all pretty much say the same thing. I got a piece of card board (luckily, it was already in the shape that I needed), and hot glued a piece of felt on top. Then I got my fabric and made sure to leave about an inch of the fabric all around the edges. I then hot glued the bottom felt piece into place and tucked the over hanging fabric in as I went. And that is all! I love my new mouse pad!!!

About Me

I love to make things so much, that I thought I would share the excitement of making cute things yourself, rather than buying them at expensive prices.
I also have a small business making baby blankets and such things:
